Flowering habit reminds me of the genus Spiranthes we have growing here in MI.

I would love to hear how you grow this. I've managed to overwinter a bunch, and now see some new growth emerging. Curious about temperature ranges light and moisture. Thank you!

Pure sphagnum for media, preferably live. Never let it dry out. 30-10-10 at 1/8 tsp per gallon at least once a week, occasional single weak dose of msu for calcium. Shady, warm to hot most of the year, high 50's nights in winter.
